CitePo

A lightweight CLI for creating, previewing, and building blogs. Create with one command, write in MDX, push to Git — your blog is truly yours.

- Zero boilerplate — no package.json, no node_modules, just content and config
- MDX powered — use React components in your posts
- Multi-language — built-in i18n with directory-based routing
- AI-ready — auto-generates llms.txt, skill.md for LLM discoverability
- SEO built-in — RSS feed, sitemap, robots.txt out of the box
- Agent friendly — generates a clean document structure, perfect for coding agents like Codex and Claude Code to edit directly
- Launch fast — deploy your blog quickly with the CitePo platform

``bash
npx citepo new my-blog
cd my-blog
